PackTite is recalling about 9,000 bed bug heating units because they can overheat and melt during use. There have been three reports of these units overheating and melting, including one incident where items inside the bag were singed. The recall includes white heaters sold as part of the PackTite original bed bug treatment system, which features a black canvas bag measuring 36 by 19 by 24 inches. Consumers who have these units should stop using them immediately and contact the manufacturer for a free replacement heater.
The internal components of the heating unit can reach temperatures high enough to melt the heater's plastic casing, creating a significant risk of fire and property damage.
